Confused by pet stain products? Learn how enzyme cleaners target and completely destroy tough urine odours at the source instead of masking them.
How do enzyme cleaners work? Enzyme cleaners use biological proteins to target and break down organic compounds like pet urine, faeces, and vomit. Instead of masking the smell with heavy fragrances, these enzymes break complex stain molecules into smaller, completely odourless components so the smell never returns.
